TWO OF A KIND

THE DAY I THREW MY CANE AWAY

I feel I am a true success story. Two months ago, I was unable to walk without a cane. Today, with the help of Dr. Yeh's treatment, I can walk to her clinic on my own. I am very grateful for the care Dr. Yeh and her staff have given me. I would like to share my story with you.

I suffered from chronic lower back pain for twenty years. Two years ago, I also fell and fractured my back. Since then, I have suffered severe pain in my neck, shoulder, lower back, and knee. The worst part about this was that I was unable to take pain medication without experiencing side effects. Due to my condition, my family physician recommended me to go see Dr. Yeh. I am living proof that Dr. Yeh's acupuncture treatments really work. Today, I am pain free. No more pain, no more cane. My family physician is very proud of me and I owe it to Dr. Yeh.

OH! MY ACHING HEAD

I have had chronic headaches for over three and a half years. The headaches were severe and constant to the degree that I was unable to do many normal daily activities. Eventually, I went to see a neurologist. However, after a series of tests, the cause of my severe headaches remained unknown. I was taking all kinds of pain medication, but the headaches continued to get worse. Since nothing was working to relieve my headaches, I decided to see Dr. Yeh. During the treatment, I often obtained an euphoric feeling--sometimes I was so relaxed that I even fell asleep. Because of Dr. Yeh, I feel better and better every day. In fact, I feel like a new person.

My sincerest thanks to Dr. Yeh--she is a miracle worker!

PAIN FREE

I have had a history of bursitis that has lasted over a decade. One day while helping my friend repair the roof, my bursitis flared up. I was unable to move my left arm. I could not even complete the simplest daily activities such as comb my hair or hold up a glass of water. The pain lasted 24 hours a day and was excruciating. Since I chose not to take any medication, I went to Dr. Yeh for acupuncture treatment. To my surprise, most of the acupuncture needles caused no pain; instead, I experienced immediate relief during the treatment. Dr. Yeh then applied acupressure and herbs which also relaxed my shoulder a great deal. After a few treatments, the pain went away completely and I regained a full range of motion. Thanks to Dr. Yeh I feel 110% better.

HOW I QUIT THE TOBACCO HABIT!!!

In 1980 I had been smoking cigarettes for about 45 years, and I was up to 3½ packs a day. I had made several attempts to quit the habit with no luck. I even tried the "snapping rubber bands on my wrist every time I lit a cigarette" routine. The result: I became addicted to rubber bands and burning wrists.

One Thursday afternoon on my way home from work, I decided to see Dr. Yeh for help. The acupuncture procedure was painless, and quite interesting. The needles were so delicate I did not feel them. After the session was over, I actually felt exhilarated. Before I left the treatment room, Dr. Yeh told me to drop my cigarettes into the trash can which I did without hesitation (I had another pack in the car). Dr. Yeh placed three small, short needles in my right ear (once again, no pain!). I was instructed to rub them whenever I felt the urge to smoke. On the way home I lit up one of those "stashed" smokes. When the smoke hit my lungs the burning sensation was so intense that I couldn't continue, and I put out the cigarette.

At work the next day, I vowed I would not open the pack of cigarettes which were in my office desk drawer. All day I rubbed my right ear quite often but I did not smoke! During the drive home, I lit up one of my "stash". Once again I could not smoke! This time I tossed the cigarettes. The following Thursday, when I returned to the Acupuncture Clinic, I declared to Dr. Yeh that I was sure I would never smoke again. Now it is close to twenty years later and Dr. Yeh did such a grand job with her art that I am still nicotine-free!!!
